Description: Few know the tragedy and heartbreak that shaped The Loner. When the once happily married businessman's wife was murdered, Conrad Browning, son of legendary gunfighter Frank Morgan, set off on a new course, complete with a new name: Kid Morgan. Bounty hunters are stalking the man known as Kid Morgan, which is how he learns there's a price on his head. A victim of mistaken identity, he had broken out of Hell Gate Prison in New Mexico to clear his name. When the right man had been brought to justice, The Kid was assured there would be no charges leveled against him, so this poster offering a $10,000 reward - Dead or Alive - is a potentially deadly mistake. Riding into the little mining town of Las Vegas, The Kid plans to lie low while his San Francisco lawyer clears up the error. But there's a bank robbery going down, and The Kid can't ignore it. When he steps in to help the marshal, he becomes the town hero - until he's recognized and he finds himself behind bars again. Someone is blocking all attempts to clear The Kid's name, and it's uncertain that he'll live long enough to ever be free again.
